Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly meme hosted by The Broke and the Bookish. It was created because of their love of lists, and I myself love lists as well - so you will see it frequently popping up on MMSAI.
Everyone is welcome to join in, and don't worry if you can't think of 10 - just do as many as you can. And of course, be sure to link back to TBATB (and leave me a link here too!) on your post!
as always they are in no particular order
This Weeks Topic Is:

Takes the Musical Approach :0)
This list is my compilation of different songs I've heard from different books' playlists. Playlists often go so hand in hand with books and set the mood for a scene in the book or for even several scenes during a book...and I've listened to quite a few that go with different books, so I thought I would give a shot at some of my favorites.
1) That's When I Love You by Aslyn - This one comes from The Boyfriend Thief by Shana Norris. It's a perfect description of the relationship between Avery and Zac and gives off the feel good vibe of knowing someone, somewhere gets you.
2) Falling Away with You by Muse - Coming from Eclipse by Stephenie Meyer (my favorite in the Twilight series) - the song just gripped me like none of the others throughout reading and listening to the playlists while reading.
3) Cornflake Girl by Tori Amos - From Rival by Sara Bennett Wealer - I've always just had this affinity to Tori Amos, and this was no different!
4) With A Little Help From My Friends by The Beatles - Part of The Lonely Hearts Club by Elizabeth Eulberg. She was fully inspired by her favorite band to write a book, and then used this near the end and it was just so fitting!
5) Samson by Regina Spektor - A tribute to Solange and Kieran in The Drake Chronicles...I don't know why but I found this somehow very fitting of the characters - and I love me some Regina!
6) Just a Girl by No Doubt - Alyson Noel's Riley Bloom series! Riley is one of my favorite fictional characters because she's so real and in your face all the time it seems. The song goes hand in hand with Riley!
7) Whatever song Amber Kizer chose by Within Temptation for Wildcat Fireflies was assuredly awesome. I am a HUGE fan of the band and to know that an author drew inspiration from one, or more, of their songs has my mind going a million miles a second!
8) Angels by Within Temptation - From Hush, Hush by Becca Fitzpatrick - I'm sorry but Becca's series has by far surpassed my expectations of an Angel series and I freaking LOVE her playlist for each book so far. Plus hi, WT, FAVORITE band (did you not get that from the last answer?)
9) I Will Follow You Into the Dark by Death Cab for Cutie - Another in the Twilight series - Breaking Dawn. I don't know what it is about this song but it just draws me in and does NOT let go.
10) And finally - okay, kill me now - but the entire playlist has been on repeat for like, a week now - When You Come Back Down by Nickel Creek from The Boyfriend Thief! It's so...I don't know. It touches my heart...I can't even explain it!











Great approach! I didn't even think of going musical. :) I love your choices. I'm also a big book playlist fan.
ReplyDeleteMusic & books...my two favorite things!! Great list for your "freebie" TTT!

I've started seeing more and more playlists included in books. I like music but I don't pay a huge amount of attention to who's who or what a song is called so I'm rubbish at making playlists!
ReplyDeleteVery clever list! Music references in novels help add to the atmosphere!
ReplyDeleteVery fun list!
